10/16/2019 As we continue the story of Forsaken Foes, we invite you to sit back and enjoy The Mortal Game. By EM Malachi The Mortal Game It bothered the king that the pieces did not match. His side was made from obsidian, beautifully sculpted into the expected shapes. The crafter had taken more liberty with red’s side, giving extra details to each of the bloodwood pieces.

October Shadows

10/2/2019 As we continue the story of Forsaken Foes, we invite you to sit back and enjoy October Shadows By EM Malachi October Shadows The hallway held a macabre mockery of various holidays. An indoor garden of gourds and nightshade grew pumpkins already carved with sinister glowing runes. Brightly colored eggs filled with bees twitched in a basket guarded by a rabid rabbit.
